    Even w all the injuries and youth, I never thought I would see a GP defense play that poorly. OSU played lights out and kicked our butt.
    Poor little Mac , LMAO.

    With this team teams like TCU and Baylor are in trouble with one loss because it puts everything back in the systems. Schools such as ND, USC, Bama and LSU have tradition and a great fan base which means more money. That is why Ohio State jumped TCU last year. Don't believe what they say about the conference championship game. It was about the money. They would have jumped TCU if the situations had been reversed.

    Go Sinton Pirates and Lady Pirates! I also like old movies like "Dawn at Socorro." I also like the Tour de France. I like the Pelican West Band located at South Padre Island, Texas. Phil is PhiI is Bill is the compassion police. He is also the Sinton Matador. Some call him the Sinton Prophet. {Also Captain Obvious. } BEWARE OF THE HOWLING BEAR! He's going for the Corner - he's got it! Roy Orbison rules.

    I agree. Had OU or UT been in the Baylor or TCU position last year, there's no way they would have been left out. It's a crappy reality that small schools have to deal with.

    The best option is to go to a 16 team playoff. Every single sport at the college level can crown a legitimate champion by teams playing on the field except D1 football. It's all about everyone protecting their cash cow.

    UH with another chance to move up... Should be an easy win this week but playing navy at home next week.

    Might have to go to that one.

    Teams ahead of them will continue to knock themselves out and they'll have another win over a ranked team...

    If they win out, including the conference championship, you guys think they can sneak into the playoff?

    Clemson is in
    Bama still has auburn and SEC championship, but they're probably in
    Ohio St will drop a game, they have their 3 hardest games left
    ND will hopefully lose to stanford
    Iowa will lose the big 10 championship game
    OSU will lose at least one of their final 2 games against baylor and OU
    OU will lose at least one of their final 2 games against TCU and OSU
    Florida will lose the SEC championship game
    Mich st plays ohio st this week
    Baylor has 3 tough games left, going to lose more than one probably
    Stanford still has 2 tough games left, ND and Pac 12 championship
    Michigan plays ohio st next week
    Utah most likely going to win out and play in the pac 12 championship against stanford
    Florida st is most likely going to lose to florida
    LSU has to play ole miss and A&M, hoping they lose one... preferably to A&M...
    This all depends on Navy losing to Uh anyways, so just going to assume Navy loses for the purpose of this what-if scenario
    North Carolina will probably win out, but their schedule is stupid weak and they have a loss. I expect UH to leap frog them after another win over a ranked team
    TCU has OU and Baylor left, will probably lose one
    Then we have UH, who has Uconn and Navy. Then if temple beats Memphis this week, they probably enter back into the top 25 and play against UH in the AAC championship. So in that scenario, UH could beat 2 more ranked teams this season boosting their SOS

    This is how i see it playing out:

    Clemson wins out, they're in. Alabama wins out, they're in. Winner of the big 10 championship is in, whether it be OSU, Iowa, Michigan or Mich St. One of those teams is going to win out. Whoever does is in. Stanford and ND play, and then ND and Utah play. Whoever comes out of that without a loss in is. Big 12 beats up on each other, knocks themselves out. Houston finishes undefeated but is left out, probbaly finishes #6 behind the top big 12 team at 5.

    I'm going to put on my flame proof jacket as I pose a question. Honest question.

    How many of the top ten would still be in the top ten if they had to play all the SEC West teams? Pretty sure none would be unbeaten. And most would've had their teeth kicked in a few games by now.

    Arkansas would punish most of them IMO...I Wonder who doesn't want to face them (Arky) in a bowl game?

    Flame ON!
